Alright, let me break most of this down in the most objective way possible. First of all I believe that it is important to note that during raids, unfair scenarios tend to happend and due to the very nature of those raids (being messy and uncontrollable) it is not always possible to realize what is going on in time and act accordingly.
I've been on the IRMM fighter for this encounter so I do believe I know what I am talking about.

At the same time, Outcasts never differed in technology, but here you have surpassed even the states in technology. Where did the lagging behind in development have such high technology? You do not have so many resources, and the minds to even come up with this, not what to produce.
And again, back to the first.
If you guys do not change your attitude to the battles and do not stop constantly trying to outstrip and poison not funny jokes about others in the RP, then I will try to have nothing to do with you at all. At least our whole group is not happy with your ganks.
And so yes, good luck not to become OF.
In my opinion, you are not worth it because of your RP and behavior.
I wish you health and many years to come.
Thank you for your attention, if you pay it at all.
Technological advancement in Discovery has always been fishy. Of course you cannot expect everyone to be a physicist or chemist with a diploma and I believe that this heavily shows in most, if not all roleplay centered around SRP's, weapons, engines, you name it. For some people this may come off as cringy and not without reason. Given, however, that this is the standard that has been seemingly set years ago, I think it is pretty unfair to call out a certain faction for it, suprisingly right after you lost a fight against them and (later) admit that you dislike the leader in particular.
The fighting part however, I do not fully understand. If what you said was the truth and if your group was unhappy about an "unfair" (I'll get to this in a second) fight, then why have you done the same exactly 20 seconds before, except you used what to me looked like 1 BC, 1 Cruiser, 1 GB and 2 Bombers on a single Carrier. There is a very small percentage of players on the server that do not mind being ganked, and if you are not one of them then treat others accordingly otherwise it is just simply hypocritical of you to call out others for it.

We didn't have a BS, we had a BC
OC BC has been killed so fast, because we have seen, that you are getting numbers. We tried to kill him and then regroup, but sadly were interrupted by this silently engaging LSF carrier.
EDIT: Tho, again, it might be the matter of not only one encounter, this one might be the "final nail".
This also serves as a good example of what I have mentioned a few lines above. As it seems you have ganked and killed one of the people that wanted to participate in what could have been a very fun fight, but afterward have the audacity to complain about being treated the same. Even if this was not the case, I do not believe that the fight started out (THIS IS IMPORTANT!) unfair. We arrived with one Sarissa, one SRP (I honestly don't know if its a Cruiser or a Battlecruiser or a Hybrid of sorts), as well as what I believe was a cruiser and of course a fighter. You, on the other hand, had a Battlecruiser, a Gunboat, a Cruiser and two bombers present. I do not think that this is completly balanced but in my eyes this is not something to complain about either. Had you played together properly, then you would have won. As Sava mentioned, IRMM + friends contains newer players and people that are new(-ish) to Fleet Combat and that could have been exploited. For the initial part of the fight, and this is my personal opinion, you have only yourselves to blame.
However, what happened afterward with the Battlecruiser and Battleship in Aquintaine, I do not agree with. Yet, given that we basically won the fight, I think the Outcast Capital ships simply sped up what was inevitable either way.
I do sincerely apologize to the pilot of the Battleship as well as the BC still, as I think everyone deserves their portion of fun and fairplay.

I'm not sure what you mean by that. There were no people present to be hired, it was just Outcasts and Enclave.

Yes, for all the time I see his activities on the forum and in the game, I have a personal dislike for this person.
This is my subjective opinion, each has its own.
And yes, I'm not trying to offend the person.
I think you know very well that this is not constructive criticism so I'm curious why you wasted time on posting it in the first place.
